Tasting Notes: Il Marroneto sits in the northern zone of Montalcino, an area characterized by higher elevations, steep slopes, and cooler temperatures. These conditions are ideal for creating Brunelli of significant ageing potential, showing complexity, increased aromatics, classic tannic structure and nervy acidity. Crunchy red-berry fruit, cedar and tobacco flesh out in this super-classic Brunello.

Estate History: Il Marroneto was founded in 1974 by Giuseppe Mori. Son Alessandro Mori joined the estate immediately, creating the first vintage in 1980. The estate is located in the higher elevations of the cooler northern zone of Montalcino, and is one of the older estates in the appellation. Traditional in style and adhering to a philosophy of minimal intervention in the vineyard and cellar, Il Marroneto foregoes conventional methods. Focusing on the health of the vine through spacing and nutrient-rich topsoil, Mori eschews the use of chemicals, allows only native ferments and ages in large oak cask.
